8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44
mutiply the bracket by -4
(-4)(5) = -20
(-4)(-x)= 4x
8x-20+4x= -44
8x+4x-20= -44 ( combine like terms )
12x-20= -44
move -20 to the other side
sign changes from -20 to +20
12x-20+20= -44+20
12x= -44+20
12x= -24
divide both sides by 12
12x/12= -24/12

Answer:
213 in base 4 = 124 in base 5
Step-by-step explanation:
First we convert base 4 to base 10
213 in base 4
2*42 + 1*41 + 3*40
32 + 4 + 3
39 in base 10
Now we convert base 10 to base 5
39/5
7/5 r = 4
1 r = 2
124 in base 5
Hence 213 in base 4 = 124 in base 5
Answer:
x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 11 = -8x + 14
Add 8x to both sides
10x - 11 = 14
Add 11 to both sides
10x = 25
Divide both sides by 10
x = 2.5
